CEMOTO EB40 — Electric City Commuter Bike A step-thru urban commuter eBike with a 750W hub motor, 48V 15Ah battery and a full commuter kit including rear rack and fenders — designed to be street-legal at Class 2 limits. Product page: cemotoride.com/products/cemoto-eb40-electric-city-commuter-bike Overview The CEMOTO EB40 is the step-thru city commuter in the CEMOTO eBike range. It pairs a 6061 aluminum alloy frame with a 750W BLDC hub motor and a 48V 15Ah lithium-ion battery, giving a claimed range of 40+ miles. CEMOTO markets it as Class 2 street legal with a top speed of 20 mph, which places it in the most permissive US category for eBike use on public roads and paths. It ships with a complete commuter kit — rear rack and fenders included — rather than as an add-on purchase. The step-thru geometry (low-step frame for easy mounting) makes it straightforward to get on and off in traffic and in everyday clothing. Available colors Color White Black For current pricing and availability, see the EB40 product page.

CEMOTO's range tests typically assume a 70 kg rider, 25 °C ambient temperature and 20 km/h constant speed. Real-world results vary with rider weight, terrain, temperature, tire pressure, battery condition and riding style. For a structured way to estimate range for your own conditions, see Range Calculator. Safety and legal notes Wear an approved helmet. Required by law in many jurisdictions for eBike riders. Confirm your local eBike rules. Class 2 compliance applies in many US states, but local ordinances on where eBikes may be ridden (paths, trails, sidewalks) vary. See Riding Laws & Compliance. eBikes are single-rider vehicles. Never carry a passenger. Improve your range by pedalling. The owner manual advises using pedal assistance on climbs and in windy conditions to save energy and extend battery life. Do not ride through deep water, and avoid prolonged riding in rain. Follow the assembly and pre-ride checks in Unboxing & Assembly and Pre-Ride Inspection. Images EB40 — official product photography.
